Daniel: "Aces?!" Daniel: "I'm not worried about that." Also Daniel: "How the hell you gonna have aces?" Still Daniel: "You could have aces." I love this man lol.

The interesting thing about playing against an "Amateur" player is the factor of unpredictability, even if you're tuned in to normal betting patterns they can still really surprise you. Sometimes even the most experienced players can get sloppy on an educated guess and end up wrong on the read and pay for it. Just another thing I love about this game.

Dont get the call at all. Playing it small first. This flop couldt hit him, and you check. Then paying 100 k off on the river . Maybe a 35-50 bet on the flop would have defined your hand much earlier Daniel , and saved you a crying call. Just a thought. Thx for sharing.

I literally started to learn holdem after printing your writings at your blog, and then reading them for a few times in the early 2000’s - which I enjoyed pretty much. Even if it was ages ago according to the evolution of poker, what remained is your own, unique style and personality. Did your methods improve? Very much likely! Did you manage to still be on top? Without any question. What remained in the meantime is you as a person who shares his ideas in an unselfish, irreplaceable way. Because of it, you still, undoubtedly have my respect.

love you negs and especially your theme

Always have and always will be my favorite poker player.

u r awesome daniel!

Love the Landon reference 😂. Get to the river and say something like “ I HAVE to jam 22 it’s GTO” 😂🤣

The hybrid poker thing was cool. I think I got a 66, but it only flashed for a second and never emailed me the results like it said it would. I think it was 66 or 64.... Waiting to take the full one till I'm rested and ready. You are right about the software, did it on Android, really cool. I like How it makes you think of your frequencies and bet sizes, and set them precisely. Also love this style of video. Thank you for sharing your thought process.... I've come a long way from watching you make soul reads every other tourny lol. The "you have KK or AA right?" And making him fold, best hand ever! Best wishes DN

Hi Dnegs, can you blend in the ranges you are talking about? I would be cool to see the card combinations be like grayed out and show how ranges evolve during the game. Thanks!

Glad you're showing losing hands as well! Was it the correct play this time? Maybe not. Is it the correct play over hundreds of hands? Maybe!

Tbh against 88, AJ has 44% equity and in that pot you need to realize at least 56%, so it was a good fold regardless.

@rybiryj

Жыл бұрын

That 56% number seems wrong. I think with this bet and pot sizes, you need 102 / (102 + 182) = 36% equity to break even, so calling would be profitable

I got a score of 71, was a good exercise. Most of my “errors” were not mixing in enough check raises and jamming but I like to play some “small ball” in certain spots that the computer plays more aggressively. 🤷‍♂️

I got a 59 and just started watching and playing poker

Makes a lot of sense, definitely a good fold you can live with. Do you think he factored in those pot odds into his bet to get you to fold? Or did he want you to call so he would also get the benefit of a coin flip and possibly extend his tournament life?

I got 72, most of my decisions where on line with gto but my sizings where sometimes off by a lot lol, the gto tends to bet bigger than i do, good to know i need to bet bigger mostly on turns on rivers

Good analysis.Thanks a lot.

Playing people I don't know and just regular players it really makes all these strategies not as powerful though they can still be valuable to know. You just have to play strong hands and not be so predictable and passive. I could see folding pocket Aces being a good move depending on the bet size cause no pocket pair is guaranteed to win and it limits your outs to 2 cards usually. It's all about having balance and getting lucky

Daniel - for the first hand, does that mean you were probably calling him with Ace High or did the 5 really make a difference?

Hey Daniel brother, when are you gonna make a video in Romanian? 😅😅 I think we all would be very proud of it!!!!!! Regards you’re a cool guy

I'm not very good at poker, but I love learning things in these videos! Can someone explain why it's considered a "punt" to jam with A4 suited like he talks about @14:10? To me those sound like good cards if I'm only facing one other player because you could pair your ace, draw a straight, or draw a flush... but is it because the paired Ace is just too weak or something that makes this a bad move?

@mochiman100

Жыл бұрын

I’m not the beat either so take this with a grain of salt, but he said the dude “5-bet” with an A5, which is really not that good when you consider how many other raises there are in the hand already. Your opponents that are raising probably have much stronger hands than you and could even just have an ace with a better kicker. Or just have kings, queens, etc. So 5-betting A5 is really not advisable. I’m not sure what the odds are of winning but probably not very good against those ranges.

bro i have no idea what this guy is talking about and yet i watch

The weird thing is Daniel is tripped out about how the first guy plays so weirdly when he literally stood up at each ten freaking out to make sure it was. I guess Daniel took that as a bluff.

pleasantly surprised to have scored a 73 on it.

Your wife makes sure you win more and still get cool theories to reveal later :) very cute

“Tf you lay that deeown”

Should we cheer for a devorce ? Ccc

Does the possibility to knock out one good player affect your thinking aswell in this spot ? The price wasnt good enough for you, i understand. But to take him out is not a variable here ? Sure there is the risk to double him and make him stronger again.

Pros on tilt- poker is poker at the end of the day if I win your chips it doesn’t matter

I got 68, DNegs got 74…do I get 68/74ths of his prize money now?

Scored 75! I beat DNegs by 1!

If Katz has AK and flips it over it's close to a call (it's not a call fwiw but the pot odds are pretty close!) so this feels like a snap. Feels like a mistake to fold and maybe too much assumption about how narrow and predictable Katz's range is given Daniel says he thinks he's a tricky/good player.

You split the raising range vs the limping range, with this simple concept , You dont limp A5 becuase you are getting A10 andAx down to fold by raising, Limping A5 gets you trapped, -AKQ

Love your Video's Daniel. Thank you. As an aside... I wish they could block out the noise of every player at the table shuffling chips the entire time.

I got a 62 lol those solvers are definitely bots

Based on the table talk I'm surprised you folded honestly. It's a call for that price generally but with him even being willing to say a couple sentences generally that's enough to rule out the aces like you did. If you rule that out not sure how you decided on fold. You aren't doing bad enough vs the other hands. You got the AK/AQ combos that have you 3 to 1 that you block and then the pairs that have you 70/30. I understand that you rarely think you're actually ahead but having 32 in with 102 more to play I just don't think you you can fold for so few combos having you in serious trouble. I think its a whole other conversation if the bet is even something like 125 more.

An absolute fold...
